These are amazing! I made them for a late night supper for myself. They were so easy! Since I cannot eat gluten, I used brown rice flour instead of wheat. I was worried that the mixture was too thin after adding the oil and water so I added a sprinkling of guar gum and it thickened nicely. They fried up just fine. They were flavored deliciously, nice and crunchy as the texture, but rather nicely soft on the inside. I used a rather small jalapeno pepper, and I would have loved it to be a bit hotter. Next time I will try leaving in the seeds and membrane and see how it turns out. I would imagine these tasting delicious with a homemade yogurt sauce. I may experiment with that. My whole family tried some and they couldn't stay out of them! I ate them with fresh baby spinach and hot green tea. Your story is very touching and with reading it I enjoy making and eating these even more. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I really love it. :)

I agree, these are amazing. Better than the ones we had at our favorite Indian restaurant. I only made half a recipe but they are soooo good. I may try cooking them on our KJ with the pizza stone next time. We will be having these many times in the future. This time I served them with Recipe #25396.

<p>Hi Everybody! Thanks for stopping by in my little niche of the mighty Zaar world. <br />Here is a quick link to the beauty recipes I've posted (highest rated so far):http://www.recipezaar.com/r/chef=6357/253/451/18/ls=h <br /> <br />A few things I've done:- <br /> <br />1. Worked part time as a Telemarketer in Oman in the Crowne Plaza Hotel. <br /> <br />2. Worked as a Certified Professional Tarotist (Tarot Card Reader) and done accurate predicitions for many people from different parts of the world, most memorable of which is the reading I did for my college Law lecturer and it came true. <br /> <br />3. Written nearly 1000 poems several of which have been published in leading newspapers, ezines and magazines both in Oman and India. <br /> <br />4. Worked as a Moderator on www.allpoetry.com - my BEST and FAVOURITE site on the internet. <br /> <br />My other interests include: Numerology, Vaastu Shastra, Feng Shui, Face Reading, Reiki and Astrology! I am really very keen on getting well-versed with metaphysical sciences such as Astrology, I-Ching, Feng Shui, Runes, Enneagram, Kabbalah and many more. <br /> <br />I love researching on the mythology of ancient Goddesses and then condensing my research into poems. <br /> <br />In the mood to gift me something?
